Every successful aquarium begins with proper water conditions. If your source water is municipally treated tap water, then aquarium fish are immediately faced with the threat of chlorine or chloramines. These two chemicals are harmful to aquarium fish. Use Drs. Foster and Smith Chlorine Neutralizer with every water change, top off or any time you need to make tap water safe for aquarium use.

Directions: Add 5 ml (1 teaspoon) per 10 gallons of water to treat chlorine and 10 ml (2 teaspoons) per 10 gallons of water to treat chloramines. Safe to dose up to 10 times the recommended amount if chlorine/chloramines levels are temporarily extremely high. For best results turn off protein skimmer, UV sterilizers and ozonizers for 4-6 hours after adding Drs. Foster and Smith Chlorine Neutralizer.

General Information
Tap water contains high levels of chlorine or chloramines to make it safe for human consumption. However, these same levels are toxic to fish and invertebrates and must be neutralized for their safety. Use Drs. Foster and Smith Chlorine Neutralizer to make tap water instantly safe for fish and invertebrates.

Don't take the quality of your tap water for granted. If you draw your water from a well, nature may not be providing you the perfect balance. If you are using tap water from your municipal department, it likely includes minerals and additives.

Algae are prolific and opportunistic organisms that take advantage of aquarium systems that are out of balance. Water quality issues create ideal conditions for algae. This article explains how proper water quality helps control algae.

Bacterial additives establish a healthy population of beneficial bacteria that efficiently break down ammonia into nitrite and then to nitrate. The use of bacterial additives is most commonly associated with the initial set up of an aquarium.

Could you please list the ingredients in the description of the product? It would be nice to be able to compare this to other water conditioners and make a more informed choice, especially since some conditioners contain a lot of unnecessary ingredients. Thank you!

Does this product just remove chlorine/chloromines and does nothing else? I prefer a dechlorinator that DOES NOT remove or detoxify heavy metals, ammonia, nititrites and etc. I prefer to leave these as they are for my planted aquarium. In other words I am looking for a dechlorinator that just dechlorinates and does nothing else. I do not prefer a stress coat type formula either. Just pure dechlorination with no other benefit. Thanks.

The Instant Ammonia Remover by Drs.F&S removes chlorine and chloramines. And it's practically the same price as this product. Also Instant Ammonia Remover is designed to only remove chlorine and chloramines when using the standard dose of 1tsp/10 gallon (just like this product). But Instant Ammonia Remover can also safely be used at 3 times the strength to also remove ammonia in case you have a spike and need to use it as an emergency.So what I don't understand, for the same price and same dosage, you also have a product that can be used to remove ammonia as well, so why even offer this product here? Wouldn't users be better off being suggested to the use the tap water conditioner that also removes ammonia for those occasional emergencies?

Thank you for your question. The Chlorine Neutralizer and Instant Ammonia Remover are similar products; however, they are made to serve different purposes in the aquarium hobby. The Chlorine Neutralizer will not remove the ammonia from your water; however, it can be used for up to 10 times the recommended dosage if necessary to remove high levels of chlorine, where as the Ammonia Remover can only be used for up to 3 times the recommended amount to remove Ammonia spikes in the aquarium.
